Chapter 1393: Ubuyashiki Kanata's Devil Fruit Ability! (Extra chapter for Alliance Leader Jia Xu Hermit)
"Hoo——————"
White cold air began to form with Esdeath's breathing. This was her self-created Ice Breathing.
Then she raised the racket in her right hand, lightly tossed the tennis ball, bent her knees and arched her back, jumped up, and swung the racket out forcefully.
[Roar----]
Her entire serving motion was very fluid, completed in one go. It was just that the huge sonic boom it created was a bit frightening.
But Stussy's reaction and speed on the opposite side were similarly incredibly fast.
She appeared next to the landing point as if by teleportation, then aimed at the bouncing golden beam, swinging her arm and racket into a fleeting electric flash.
[Bang!!!]
A surging sonic boom was generated again. The golden beam was hit back to Esdeath's half-court in the blink of an eye.
That's right, Stussy chose 'Thunder Breathing', because Lord Imu likes gold.
Inside the hot water pool, Im was also watching with great interest. He felt that this was much more interesting than the previous Top 100 Competition.
The other side.
Esdeath caught the golden beam hit back by Stussy.
She felt the powerful impact force on her racket. A constant 'chi chi' vibrating sound rang in her ears; this was the tennis ball fiercely rubbing against the net strings.
Just this one ball had already proven that Stussy's strength was not small.
But in the next moment.
Esdeath's extremely tense forearm muscle trembled.
At the same time, her front and back striding legs twisted forcefully. The racket in her hand swung out a large arc of a semicircle.
On the spot, she hit the tennis ball back, forming another golden beam sweeping over the net.
A harsh and intense whistling sound immediately resounded throughout the entire court.
causing the surrounding Battle Rabbit Maids who had just arrived at Noah's Ark to all show painful expressions.
But they also didn't dare to make a gesture of covering their ears, could only purse their lips, clench their fists, and forcibly endure.
Ubuyashiki Kanata noticed this situation, realizing that for the Battle Rabbit Race, whose sense of hearing was extremely sensitive...
Whether it was the tennis ball's whistling sound or the rumble of the tennis ball hitting the ground, both were too loud.
She thought about it and still decided to take action. After all, they were her own people.
This third sister among the Ubuyashiki Sisters raised her fair and tender right hand and pointed to the side. Immediately in front of her finger, a rectangular mirror was generated out of thin air.
It immediately flew to a Battle Rabbit Maid standing by the court edge, ready to serve at any time.
Next, she continuously manufactured new mirrors and placed them in front of every single Battle Rabbit Maid.
And these Battle Rabbit Maids immediately felt that the sound by their ears was no longer so loud.
Because the mirrors in front of them absorbed all the sound transmitted from the frontal direction into the 'Mirror World'.
Furthermore, these mirrors were 'transparent' and would not affect observing the situation on the court.
This was because Ubuyashiki Kanata used her ability to swap the views on both sides of the mirrors.
That is, the side facing the court showed the Battle Rabbit Race Maids, while the side facing the Battle Rabbit Race Maids showed the scene inside the court.
Her action caused the Battle Rabbit Maids to feel grateful and also caused Akame, Mikasa, Tsunade, and others who noticed this to show surprise.
They really rarely saw the Ubuyashiki Maids use their own abilities.
But it was just a quick glance.
Everyone's attention was still focused on Esdeath and Stussy's match.
At this moment, the two were engaged in a fierce rally. That streak of golden beam was constantly moving back and forth over the net.
"15-0!"
"15-15!"
"30-15!"
"30-30!"
Historia's voice calling out the score also appeared repeatedly.
Although they didn't know why, neither Esdeath nor Stussy used their respective abilities.
Instead, they were competing solely based on their respective strength, speed, reaction, and perception.
In other words, in this game, they were competing in martial arts!
[Bang----]
The golden beam, at an extremely tricky angle, instantly swept past Stussy's back.
At the same time, the Battle Rabbit Maid guarding that direction quickly ran over to retrieve the ball.
As for intercepting it mid-air, leaving aside whether she could do it, she truly lacked the courage.
If this ball directly hit them, it was estimated that even if they didn't die, they would still end up with severe injuries.
Inside the court, Historia shouted again: "40-30!"
Esdeath returned to the serving line.
With her palm pressing down on the bouncing tennis ball, she looked at Stussy with a smile.
"Your martial arts isn't bad, but it's still not enough to satisfy me."
As soon as her words fell, she tossed the tennis ball high into the air.
Her deep blue ice eyes quickly sharpened. Her arm began swinging rapidly again.
At the same time.
Originally, the blue grip and the white net, their surfaces quickly became stained with a black luster.
[Bang!]
The tennis ball, which also turned black, was subjected to a fierce strike from the racket.
In an instant, violent qi energy erupted like a storm.
Rings of sonic boom clouds, visible to the naked eye, continuously exploded along the path where the black line passed.
Stussy slightly furrowed her brow.
Standing in place, she let this 'black line', containing terrifying power, smash onto the ground and then fly out of her own half-court.
A surging strong wind rushed towards her face, blowing her slightly sexy sports skirt, making it flap loudly.
"Game, Esdeath, 1-0!"
Historia announced the scorer of the first game.
Akame, Mikasa, and others watching from the surroundings fell silent.
It seemed now that Esdeath's martial arts was stronger than Stussy.
However, this was also normal. As a Heavenly Empress, Esdeath could freely use the Star Pressure Palace's gravity equipment, and she herself was also a Mythical Zoan ability user within the Animal System.
In terms of martial arts, she naturally had a great advantage.
It was just that, that last ball just now, could Stussy really not return it?
"Switch Courts!"
Under Historia's instruction, Esdeath and Stussy passed each other.
"I hope you can use your full strength. Only the strong can obtain my respect."
"I only need Lord Imu's regard."
Stussy walked to the serving line, took the tennis ball a Battle Rabbit Maid handed her, and looked at Esdeath with a calm expression.
She knew that from the start of this second game, it would no longer be limited to martial arts.
Esdeath on the opposite side also understood, so she directly entered the Kirin Fruit's Human-Beast Form.
Originally, her 1.7-meter height rapidly surged to nearly three meters. Double horns grew on her head, and pure white hair appeared on her body.
Crucially, she also had a slender white tail gently swaying behind her.
At the same time, Esdeath emitted a surging cold air from her body.
causing the surrounding temperature to begin dropping rapidly.
The ground beneath her feet also quickly froze over with a layer of smooth ice and spread towards Stussy's court.
Just then, a 'bang' sound rang out. Stussy on the opposite side boldly served.
Esdeath moved her feet, her entire person appearing ahead of time at the landing point as if by teleportation.
"That ball will disappear, you know~"
In that instant, the golden beam shooting towards Esdeath suddenly disappeared out of thin air.
This caused surprise to flash in her eyes as she had just swung her racket.
Then, that disappeared golden beam actually reappeared behind Esdeath and flew directly out of this side of the court.
"15-0!"
Although Historia was also startled, she still immediately called out the score.
[Bang!]
Soon, Stussy, with a smile on her face, again sent out a powerful golden beam.
The same situation appeared. This ball again disappeared the instant it bounced up and then appeared behind Esdeath.
"30-0!"
Esdeath, who lost a point again, did not lose her composure, because she had already understood.
"Shrinking the tennis ball and then passing it through the gaps in my racket. That's a bit interesting. But what if I do this?"
Esdeath raised her racket, showing the frost gradually forming on its surface for Stussy to appreciate.
Using ice, the gaps between the strings were blocked!
